+# ADR-067: RuVector v2.0.4 to v2.0.5 Upgrade + New Crate Adoption
+
+**Status:** Proposed
+**Date:** 2026-03-23
+**Deciders:** @ruvnet
+**Related:** ADR-016 (RuVector training pipeline integration), ADR-017 (RuVector signal + MAT integration), ADR-029 (RuvSense multistatic sensing)
+
+## Context
+
+RuView currently pins all five core RuVector crates at **v2.0.4** (from crates.io) plus a vendored `ruvector-crv` v0.1.1 and optional `ruvector-gnn` v2.0.5. The upstream RuVector workspace has moved to **v2.0.5** with meaningful improvements to the crates we depend on, and has introduced new crates that could benefit RuView's detection pipeline.
+
+### Current Integration Map
+
+| RuView Module | RuVector Crate | Current Version | Purpose |
+|---------------|----------------|-----------------|---------|
+| `signal/subcarrier.rs` | ruvector-mincut | 2.0.4 | Graph min-cut subcarrier partitioning |
+| `signal/spectrogram.rs` | ruvector-attn-mincut | 2.0.4 | Attention-gated spectrogram denoising |
+| `signal/bvp.rs` | ruvector-attention | 2.0.4 | Attention-weighted BVP aggregation |
+| `signal/fresnel.rs` | ruvector-solver | 2.0.4 | Fresnel geometry estimation |
+| `mat/triangulation.rs` | ruvector-solver | 2.0.4 | TDoA survivor localization |
+| `mat/breathing.rs` | ruvector-temporal-tensor | 2.0.4 | Tiered compressed breathing buffer |
+| `mat/heartbeat.rs` | ruvector-temporal-tensor | 2.0.4 | Tiered compressed heartbeat spectrogram |
+| `viewpoint/*` (4 files) | ruvector-attention | 2.0.4 | Cross-viewpoint fusion with geometric bias |
+| `crv/` (optional) | ruvector-crv | 0.1.1 (vendored) | CRV protocol integration |
+| `crv/` (optional) | ruvector-gnn | 2.0.5 | GNN graph topology |
+
+### What Changed Upstream (v2.0.4 → v2.0.5 → HEAD)
+
+**ruvector-mincut:**
+- Flat capacity matrix + allocation reuse — **10-30% faster** for all min-cut operations
+- Tier 2-3 Dynamic MinCut (ADR-124): Gomory-Hu tree construction for fast global min-cut, incremental edge insert/delete without full recomputation
+- Source-anchored canonical min-cut with SHA-256 witness hashing
+- Fixed: unsafe indexing removed, WASM Node.js panic from `std::time`
+
+**ruvector-attention / ruvector-attn-mincut:**
+- Migrated to workspace versioning (no API changes)
+- Documentation improvements
+
+**ruvector-temporal-tensor:**
+- Formatting fixes only (no API changes)
+
+**ruvector-gnn:**
+- Panic replaced with `Result` in `MultiHeadAttention` and `RuvectorLayer` constructors (breaking improvement — safer)
+- Bumped to v2.0.5
+
+**sona (new — Self-Optimizing Neural Architecture):**
+- v0.1.6 → v0.1.8: state persistence (`loadState`/`saveState`), trajectory counter fix
+- Micro-LoRA and Base-LoRA for instant and background learning
+- EWC++ (Elastic Weight Consolidation) to prevent catastrophic forgetting
+- ReasoningBank pattern extraction and similarity search
+- WASM support for edge devices
+
+**ruvector-coherence (new):**
+- Spectral coherence scoring for graph index health
+- Fiedler eigenvalue estimation, effective resistance sampling
+- HNSW health monitoring with alerts
+- Batch evaluation of attention mechanism quality
+
+**ruvector-core (new):**
+- ONNX embedding support for real semantic embeddings
+- HNSW index with SIMD-accelerated distance metrics
+- Quantization (4-32x memory reduction)
+- Arena allocator for cache-optimized operations
+
+## Decision
+
+### Phase 1: Version Bump (Low Risk)
+
+Bump the 5 core crates from v2.0.4 to v2.0.5 in the workspace `Cargo.toml`:
+
+```toml
+ruvector-mincut = "2.0.5"        # was 2.0.4 — 10-30% faster, safer
+ruvector-attn-mincut = "2.0.5"   # was 2.0.4 — workspace versioning
+ruvector-temporal-tensor = "2.0.5" # was 2.0.4 — fmt only
+ruvector-solver = "2.0.5"        # was 2.0.4 — workspace versioning
+ruvector-attention = "2.0.5"     # was 2.0.4 — workspace versioning
+```
+
+**Expected impact:** The mincut performance improvement directly benefits `signal/subcarrier.rs` which runs subcarrier graph partitioning every tick. 10-30% faster partitioning reduces per-frame CPU cost.
+
+### Phase 2: Add ruvector-coherence (Medium Value)
+
+Add `ruvector-coherence` with `spectral` feature to `wifi-densepose-ruvector`:
+
+**Use case:** Replace or augment the custom phase coherence logic in `viewpoint/coherence.rs` with spectral graph coherence scoring. The current implementation uses phasor magnitude for phase coherence — spectral Fiedler estimation would provide a more robust measure of multi-node CSI consistency, especially for detecting when a node's signal quality degrades.
+
+**Integration point:** `viewpoint/coherence.rs` — add `SpectralCoherenceScore` as a secondary coherence metric alongside existing phase phasor coherence. Use spectral gap estimation to detect structural changes in the multi-node CSI graph (e.g., a node dropping out or a new reflector appearing).
+
+### Phase 3: Add SONA for Adaptive Learning (High Value)
+
+Replace the logistic regression adaptive classifier in the sensing server with a SONA-backed learning engine:
+
+**Current state:** The sensing server's adaptive training (`POST /api/v1/adaptive/train`) uses a hand-rolled logistic regression on 15 CSI features. It requires explicit labeled recordings and provides no cross-session persistence.
+
+**Proposed improvement:** Use `sona::SonaEngine` to:
+1. **Learn from implicit feedback** — trajectory tracking on person-count decisions (was the count stable? did the user correct it?)
+2. **Persist across sessions** — `saveState()`/`loadState()` replaces the current `adaptive_model.json`
+3. **Pattern matching** — `find_patterns()` enables "this CSI signature looks like room X where we learned Y"
+4. **Prevent forgetting** — EWC++ ensures learning in a new room doesn't overwrite patterns from previous rooms
+
+**Integration point:** New `adaptive_sona.rs` module in `wifi-densepose-sensing-server`, behind a `sona` feature flag. The existing logistic regression remains the default.
+
+### Phase 4: Evaluate ruvector-core for CSI Embeddings (Exploratory)
+
+**Current state:** The person detection pipeline uses hand-crafted features (variance, change_points, motion_band_power, spectral_power) with fixed normalization ranges.
+
+**Potential:** Use `ruvector-core`'s ONNX embedding support to generate learned CSI embeddings that capture room geometry, person count, and activity patterns in a single vector. This would enable:
+- Similarity search: "is this CSI frame similar to known 2-person patterns?"
+- Transfer learning: embeddings learned in one room partially transfer to similar rooms
+- Quantized storage: 4-32x memory reduction for pattern databases
+
+**Status:** Exploratory — requires training data collection and embedding model design. Not a near-term target.
+
+## Consequences
+
+### Positive
+- **Phase 1:** Free 10-30% performance gain in subcarrier partitioning. Security fixes (unsafe indexing, WASM panic). Zero API changes required.
+- **Phase 2:** More robust multi-node coherence detection. Helps with the "flickering persons" issue (#292) by providing a second opinion on signal quality.
+- **Phase 3:** Fundamentally improves the adaptive learning pipeline. Users no longer need to manually record labeled data — the system learns from ongoing use.
+- **Phase 4:** Path toward real ML-based detection instead of heuristic thresholds.
+
+### Negative
+- **Phase 1:** Minimal risk — semver minor bump, no API breaks.
+- **Phase 2:** Adds a dependency. Spectral computation has O(n) cost per tick for Fiedler estimation (n = number of subcarriers, typically 56-128). Acceptable.
+- **Phase 3:** SONA adds ~200KB to the binary. The learning loop needs careful tuning to avoid adapting to noise.
+- **Phase 4:** Requires significant research and training data. Not guaranteed to outperform tuned heuristics for WiFi CSI.
+
+### Risks
+- `ruvector-gnn` v2.0.5 changed constructors from panic to `Result` — any existing `crv` feature users need to handle the `Result`. Our vendored `ruvector-crv` may need updates.
+- SONA's WASM support is experimental — keep it behind a feature flag until validated.
+
+## Implementation Plan
+
+| Phase | Scope | Effort | Priority |
+|-------|-------|--------|----------|
+| 1 | Bump 5 crates to v2.0.5 | 1 hour | High — free perf + security |
+| 2 | Add ruvector-coherence | 1 day | Medium — improves multi-node stability |
+| 3 | SONA adaptive learning | 3 days | Medium — replaces manual training workflow |
+| 4 | CSI embeddings via ruvector-core | 1-2 weeks | Low — exploratory research |
+
+## Vendor Submodule
+
+The `vendor/ruvector` git submodule has been updated from commit `f8f2c60` (v2.0.4 era) to `51a3557` (latest `origin/main`). This provides local reference for the full upstream source when developing Phases 2-4.
